剛毅之恩是聖神賦予我們意志的恆常美德，幫助我們克服實踐美德的阻礙……它特別注入於我們的意志，使我們堅定行善。(Pr 2, 113) The gift of fortitude is a permanent virtue that the Holy Spirit communicates to our will, to overcome the obstacles that would distance us from the practice […]

耶穌讓瑪利亞成為人類的母親。母親賦予孩子生命；母親餵養孩子；母親保護孩子，給他穿衣服，尚未齊全的東西為他預備妥當。至聖母親賜予我們所有天上的恩寵，這是她的職責。(Pr 2, 178-179) Jesus made Mary mother of men... The mother gives life to her son; the mother feeds her child; the mother defends the child, dresses him and provides […]

瑪利亞，內修生活的宗徒；瑪利亞，神聖典範的宗徒；瑪利亞，受苦的宗徒；瑪利亞，關鍵發言的宗徒；瑪利亞，行動的宗徒：聖母瑪利亞的一生全是使徒工作，且尚未結束；此刻，這使徒工作在天堂仍然繼續著。(Pr 1, 129) Mary, the Apostle of interior life; Mary, the Apostle for her most holy examples; Mary, the Apostle for her suffering; Mary, the Apostle for her word; Mary, […]

如果聖神傾注更多的恩賜，那麼一個人就會以愉快、慷慨的精神走在聖德的路上；這時雖然有現實的困難與重擔，但我們幾乎不覺得沉重。(Pr 2, 120) If the Holy Spirit pours out his gifts abundantly, then onewalks with a cheerful, generous soul in the way of holiness; one hardly feels the weight, although […]

她是萬物之母；她是使徒的顧問；她是安慰者，不斷地鼓勵他們：她在世的歲月裡，她真正的使徒工作是自己的聖德榜樣。她偉大的使徒工作，就是使徒和教友們從她那裡學到如何實踐和活出福音。(Pr 1, 128) She was the Mother of all, she was the counsellor of the Apostles, she was their consoler; she continually encouraged them: and her own example of her […]

聖神必須傾注上智、明達、超見和剛毅之恩：因為若少了來自天主的光，即便是最神聖的事物，也會不被重視。(Pr 1, 116) It is necessary that the Holy Spirit infuse his wisdom, his knowledge, the gift of counsel and strength: because, when there is no light that proceeds from […]

瑪利亞的使徒工作更為人熟知，因為我們知道晚餐廳裡，她坐在宗徒與門徒中間，以王后的身分在他們面前祈禱，鼓勵他們懷抱希望，並相信耶穌的應許。(Pr 1, 128) Mary’s apostolate is known even better when we see her seated among the Apostles in the Upper Room and there, as Queen, preceding them in prayer, encouraging […]

是的，我們邀請耶穌住在我們內，藉著聖神的灌溉，在我們裡面喚起極大的崇敬與熱愛。我們盡心、盡力、盡意地愛祂；願對天主的愛以及對人的愛，在我們心中不斷成長。(Pr 2, 48-49) Yes, let us invite Jesus to live in us, through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, stirring in us a great love for him. That we love […]

瑪利亞是宗徒之后。因著她的使命而堪當，她完成了最偉大的使徒工作——將耶穌基督賜給世界。瑪利亞是宗徒之后，她自己也是使徒。就像耶穌基督是使徒之王，是首位使徒：天父的使徒。(Pr 1, 121) Mary is the Queen of the Apostles. She is such because of her mission, and she is such because she has accomplished the greatest apostolate: that of […]

當聖神住在一個人的心靈裡，這人會產生基督徒的美德；聖神的傾注更加豐沛時，若我們相稱神聖的恩典，就能領受恩寵，結出美果，得到真正的幸福。(Pr 1, 43) When the Holy Spirit dwells in a soul, she produces the Christian virtues, the religious virtues; and when we have a greater outpouring of the Holy Spirit, […]

要將教會視為人類的導師：教會是信仰的導師、道德的導師、祈禱的導師；所有人都成為教會的溫順孩子，這個教會是繼續活在我們當中的耶穌基督。(Pr 2, 46) Consider the Church as Teacher of humanity: teacher of faith, teacher of morality, teacher of prayer; that all men become docile children of this Church, which is […]

是聖神的恩賜感動並促使我們行善，履行職責；聖神的恩賜推動我們走向聖德。因此，聖神的恩賜使原本困難的事情變得容易……讓我們不斷祈求聖神，渴慕祂的恩賜。(Pr 2, 119-120) The gifts of the Holy Spirit... are actions of the Holy Spirit that urge us to practice good, to fulfil our duties; they push us towards sanctification. […]
